My first 4 days were under 100 per day, and so by day 5, I only had 360 pushups in total.. an average of 72 per day.. .. so little by little I have been increasing my number of pushups per day (and per set, and number of sets in a day).. .. so it has been working out fine, so far..
There were a few days that I wanted to do lighter days, but I many of the times, I tried to push myself to what I perceived to be relatively healthy limitations. but frequently hurting and tired.. but something I could do and I feel is getting somewhat easier, even though I am still pushing myself.. and it still hurts on most days (if not all days).
This is serious! I've not visited this thread since my first post, shortly after it was created. Then, I advised the daily pushups to be commensurate to the prevailing price of Bitcoin on that day. This means that, if the Bitcoin price is $70,000 today, you do 70 pushups, and if it is $65,000 tomorrow, you do 65 pushups.
However, from what I have read so far today, I can see that you guys mean this business. If I do not believe anyone (since many will just be posting what people want to read), I believe you.
You've never shied away from your ardent nature and love for Bitcoin and I can only imagine how your biceps will look like now. Perhaps like that of the young Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I am personally not in very great shape, so these have been struggle for me. .and I get pretty sore from them, but surely my strength has increased and also my recovery time has increased.
You could also imagine an old Arnold Schwarzenegger who can still do pushups or maybe some other variation of someone who is kind of doing exercises but still has quite a bit of "out-of-shapedness" to his body.
Okay, so since I saw this thread, the challenge, I've been able to put 200 push ups daily. That's a hundred in the morning, and a hundred in the evenings, or sometimes, late into the night, but then,I have been doing my push ups and hitting the gym long before seeing this challenge. So, I've tried to be consistent for all these while. So, it's about two months now, or so, I saw this thread around late February. So, I've been on this challenge for 42days, consistently.
That's 200 push ups x 42 days, which is 8,400 push ups.
It's usually not a streak to 100 at once.
I usually do 4 sets of 50.
But then, I've said this before on here, but I want to reemphasize, let's not forget the part of the challenge where you actually build your body. Doing variations of push ups will totally hasten your muscle development and help you do more reps, as you're not overworking a particular muscle, and you can rest other muscles while still doing reps, it's like rotating the tension around your whole body, hitting different target muscles, and getting this overall bulkiness, instead of an unbalanced physique.
I'm saying this here, because I feetrhat it'd not all about btc and the challenge, but also about your wellness and fitness.
Dieting also matters more than you think. Now I don't mean picking food, or routines or anything like that, what I'm saying is that, before I got pn this challenge, I noticed that there are some foods I take, probably even a day before,that makes work out a lot more bothersome, even gassy drinks too. Imagine taking soda or something, then hitting the push up pose, the tension around your abs makes you belly so fucking uncomfortable.
Doing all these push ups with a challenge in mind got me thinking, after btc hit 100k, what else? Yes, I've been doing push ups since before the thread, but now, my work out is kind of tying with the challenge, so when btc hit $100k, where from there?
Road to 150? 200?
Well, that's a thought for people doing the "100 push ups till btc hits $100k". Imagining doing 100 push ups till some shitcoin hits 100k😂😂
You'd be the hulk at 20k😂

Hello at DirtyKeyboard! Please add my push-up details to the comprehensive list. Since I joined this push-up challenge, I have been able to cover 4300 push-ups in 43 days. And in the 43 days, I did 50 push-ups on two occasions at a time, which was a great achievement for me because I have never done something like that.

that make it two of us , damn it has been stressful trying to calculate my pushups due to not recording my pushups back then , well I've finally calculated it though. I was able due to the fact that I was doing my pushups according to bitcoin recent prices back then show went to bitcoin chart of the past few months, which actually helps in calculating my pushups though it may not be too accurate, because my memory still fuzzy, here we go. I started my pushups when this challenge started which is around Feb 6th , which made it 63 days but due to the skipping of pushups ( which was over a week and some days , so let just say 10 days of not doing any pushups) I did back then . Which made my days of pushups 53 days , then I did pushups according to bitcoin recent prices back then for 29 days , and I did 100 pushups for 16 days ( before going into an hiatus of 10 days of skipping pushups) which is upto 1600 pushups, then I did 50 pushups daily for 8 days ( 50x8 = 400 pushups) which is recent. So if I complete my 50 pushups today that would make my total days of pushups 54
.....
Now is time to add all pushups together, pushups according to bitcoin prices + 100 pushups for 16 days + 50 pushups for 8 days = 1,482pushups + 1600pushups + 400 pushups = 3,482 pushups in total .
I think that if I understand everything that you are saying, your
proper reporting format should have been something like this:

I still haven't been able to go beyond 50 push-ups in a single set. It's a bit discouraging that I feel like I've hit a bit of a wall. I'm not sure if I should be forcing myself to do more reps each time or if I should go beyond the 100 per day in the challenge to try and help me get over this hurdle. Admittedly a good night of sleep and a healthy breakfast would probably go a long way for me, but I'd rather a solution with some force. Maybe I'll continue working in other workouts and hope that it takes care of itself eventually. I'm not going to worry about it too much as I just wanted to hit 50 at once by the halving, but I feel like I'm going to need to hit another gear in order to reach 100 in a set by $100K, which I now believe we'll see in July.
There is a big difference between 50 pushups in a set and 100 in a set.
I am not sure about the solution because frequently I try to do as many pushups as I can and the number varies and yet my failure number has been going up too. .but it still kind of gets stuck at certain price points, and I also thought that I would try to increase my max by 5 push up increments, but I have failed in that since I had sets of 54, 55, 56, 58, 59 and 60.
And, so now 60 is my max in any one set, but frequently I am still ONLY doing 45 to 50 in a set with failure at around that point, and early I was kind of stuck on doing 35-45 in a set with mostly failure at those points and before that I could ONLY do 25-35 in a set.. but sometimes I was holding back some too... because I was frequently so sore..
So they are improving, even though sometimes I feel that I am stuck at a certain quantities per set for a while.. .I am also doing 5 sets each day, so the last 23 days have all been daily totals of more than 200, and my highest daily total, so far, is 265, and I recently did that twice... .
